Hey everybody
I'm writing once again from my room in lovely Iraq. Things are going along really well here, and the whole deployment is starting to wind down. The elections played a big part of my last month, we didn't have a direct influence but did a lot of behind the scenes work. It's great to see this country move forward and have a democratic future.
The month of February is going by as well, pretty soon I'll be getting ready to come home in a few months. Don't expect me to leave until sometime in the middle of April. As of now though, coming back to California doesn't look like a plan. If I only get two weeks off, then I'm going to stay in Hawaii and spend time with the family. Sorry to disappoint some, but that's how it will work out.
As for my time here in Iraq. This deployment has been great for me so far, I've learned a lot about the Marine Corps and dealing with my subordinates. I feel truly blessed and honored to have these kids underneath me. They've taken everything I've thrown at them and excelled. Hopefully they continue with their progression and we have furthered success.
Well, I need to get going. Take care everyone.
